The continental US would include Alaska but not Hawaii, and this computation was never promulgated for the short period in 1959 when Alaska was a state but not Hawaii. It would be very close to the geographic center of the entire 50 US states.For the entire 50 states, it is in western South Dakota. near the county seat of Belle Fourche, SD.Considering only the 48 contiguous states, the center is in north central Kansas near the town of Lebanon.


What do you mean by a state is not subject to external control while a nation may or may not be independent to external control?

A state is a political entity with defined geographic boundaries and a centralized government that exercises authority over its citizens and territory, and is considered not subject to external control. A nation, on the other hand, refers to a group of people who share a common identity, culture, language, or history and may or may not have a state that is independent from external control. Nations can exist within states or across multiple states.

Differentiate State from Nation?

A state is a political entity with defined geographic boundaries and a centralized government that has the authority over its population and territory. A nation, on the other hand, refers to a group of people who share a common identity, including culture, language, history, and often a sense of belonging, which may or may not correspond to a specific state. A state can contain multiple nations, or a nation can be spread across different states.
